About NATURUEL
Naturuel Gourmet is a Teruel-based pork specialist focused on differentiated, origin-linked meat products. The company develops a vertically integrated project that covers slaughtering, cutting, presentation in fresh formats, and the production of cured items, all from raw material sourced from farms in the province of Teruel.
It positions itself around quality, traceability, and sustainability, presenting its offer as a premium pork range with protected geographic origin. Naturuel Gourmet says its work is carried out through specialized companies within the group, and that the business is supported by a team of 150 professionals.
Core Values
- Quality: The company emphasizes high standards across the full process, from feed and farming to cutting and final presentation, and highlights the quality of its pork as a central promise.
- Traceability: Naturuel Gourmet stresses full traceability, with identified animals and a controlled process that links the product back to its origin in Teruel.
- Sustainability: The business presents itself as part of a circular economy model, using organic by-products as fertilizer and biomass/green energy in its operations.
- Transparency: The company says it shows its production process openly, from the fields and feed mill to the farms and meat plant.
Unique Aspects
- Protected origin: Naturuel Gourmet sells pork under the IGP Cerdo de Teruel framework, and states that the first carcass certification for Cerdo de Teruel was achieved on 29 March 2023.
- Integrated local model: The company combines farming inputs, feed production, slaughtering, cutting, curing, and packaging within a Teruel-centered production chain.
- Circular-economy approach: It says cereal grown in the area feeds the pigs, organic manure returns to the fields as fertilizer, and animal by-products are also used to generate energy.
- Group-backed operations: Naturuel Gourmet states that the project is carried out through Cartesa, Portesa, and Aire Sano, which support traceability and the wider production process.
- Cold-chain delivery: Products are shipped refrigerated, with national delivery in 24/48 hours according to the site, reinforcing the brand’s freshness promise.
